When the body grows at a faster pace than normal, it causes stretch marks to develop. The tissue in the middle layer of the skin is damaged and this becomes visible as stretch marks. Stretch marks can occur at any time when the body experiences rapid growth, for example, during adolescent growth spurts or when muscles develop rapidly. However, these most commonly occur during pregnancy, when women tend to gain weight rapidly.

Stretch marks during pregnancy

Stretch marks during pregnancy are common on the belly, but can occur elsewhere too, such as the hips and thighs. Since most women develop stretch marks during this time, it is a good idea to be prepared to deal with them, once you learn that you are pregnant. There are products that are easy to use and will enable you to enjoy this time, rather than worry about blemishes on your skin.
